“Doodle 4 Google” Competition Inspires Young Artists

March 4th, 2010

olympics10-icedance-hpNormally we’re all about college scholarships at The CollegeBound Network, but this non-scholarship contest was way too cool to pass up.

Do you know how the logo on the Google homepage often has a beautiful design to commemorate special days, like during the Olympics, when each day the Google logo featured a different Olympic event? Well, Google is giving you a chance to see your own artwork up there through the “Doodle 4 Google” competition, open to students in kindergarten through 12th grade.

The theme of Doodle 4 Google is “If I Could Do Anything, I Would…” and students are invited to be as imaginative as possible, so long as their drawings and sketches fit in with the Google logo, as have all the other wonderful Google graphics in years past. Considering the Google home page is viewed by millions of eyes each day, that’s a pretty nice audience for an amateur artist. And if you are planning on being an art major in college, having your work on Google would make an excellent first impression.

The winning Google logo will be featured on the home page on May 27. You must register for the competition by March 17, though you have until March 31 to turn in your drawing. Good luck! We look forward to seeing your work on the Google homepage.
